Yoo Seung-ho is a king again
by | May 19, 2009 | 26 Comments

Yoo Seung-ho is only fifteen, but already he’s played a king twice: first, as Bae Yong-joon‘s younger counterpart in Legend, and now in the upcoming Queen Seon-deok.

Yoo Seung-ho aside, I just think this is a beautiful photo — the contrast, the colors, the clarity. Also, this drama sure has a gorgeous look to its costuming and design, as we can see from all the pre-release photo shoots and posters.

With the popular Queen of Housewives just ended this week — today’s finale episode topped out with a 31.7% rating — Queen Seon-deok will be taking over as MBC’s newest series next Monday, May 25.

In this series, Yoo plays the son of Princess Cheon-myung (Park Ye-jin), who later becomes King Tae-jong Mu-yeol. Yoo Seung-ho will begin appearing from Episode 20.

  3. kellie

    The costumes are beautiful. And Park Ye-jin gets to play mama to another appealing royal son. She mothers only the best! lol

  4. Samsooki

    He looks like one of those ‘high’ elves from Lord of the Rings. :)

  5. tombrady

    fully agree. the photos for this drama are all excellent. the costumes and production set / backdrop all look phenomenal. i am looking forward to this unfold. too bad i dont have MBC on my cable channel. YSH is now all grown-up… and looks hot. :)

  6. fizzle

    Pretty pictures, pretty costumes, and pretty BOY!

    Wow Queen of Housewives did so well, I think I may have to watch it :)

    AHH can’t wait to see this one…he is such a good actor!

  8. Biscuit

    Looking forward to this drama! I like the leads too ^^

    I remember watching a news show about actors who are always in Sageuks and this one actor who always got the king/noble roles XD I wonder if Yoo Seung-ho will be like that too… lots of King roles XD

  9. haezi

    awesome pics. he’s already got the quiet intensity thing down to an art.

    i love all the individual posters for this drama. it really is looking to be a beautiful drama.

    Such a young age, such a talented actor. I bet he’s gonna be a mega star when he grows up (as long as he goes in the right direction). For some reason he reminds me of Kim Bum, oh.. no.. not his face, but his acting skills :-)

    Dude, that’s a nice statistic. His majesty does look quite nice in the picture.

    (And housewives topped out at 30%?! Dang I didn’t realize it was killing the ratings so. Korea just loves their housewives drama don’t they? Or maybe it’s just the ahjummas.)

    Maybe it’s the ‘King’ costume but I didn’t think he looked 15. I do hope he doesn’t get stuck just playing the same roles – since he has played King 3 times. From the intensity on his face, it looks like he can be a good actor – I have to admit I have not watch any of the movies he has starred in.

    Do not tempt me! My next segeuk is going to be Return of Iljimae and I’m *not* changing my mind. Ha!

    As for your twitter, *huggles*. Do not listen to whomever asks for more recaps!

  16. 16 asianromance

    the costuming is beautiful for this drama! i’m probably not going to watch it (going into a jdrama phase now), but will definitely look up screencaps from this drama for a dose of costume eye-candy. i agree with coolsmurf, Yoo seung-ho is definitely king material! I loved him in Legend!

    pretty! but the first thing caught my eyes is his hat, i thought it was a handle of a sword…*toinks*

    @8…

    you might be referring to Jeong Tae-woo, who almost always played the “Tragic King” roles
    -Danjong about 3 times
    -Yeonsan-gun (King and I)
    -Injong (not tragic, but rumored poisoned by step-mother)
    -Huijong (Muin Sidae)
    -Gwanghae-gun’s Crown Prince (King’s Woman), &
    -one of Taejo’s sons (Tears of Dragon; character was killed on orders by Taejong))

    …but then again, I might be wrong; lots and lots of actors play at sageuk…
